How many of the world's capital cities have you been to?
i live in the UK
So I have been to London And I have been passed Edinburgh and Cardiff on the way to other places. |
44.
45 if you count both Pretoria and Cape Town as capitals of South Africa. 48 if you count Edinburgh, Belfast and Cardiff. |
Four.
Washington, D.C. (US) London (UK) Paris (France) Lisbon (Portugal) |
Seventeen
London Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Singapore, Singapore Washington, D.C. Victoria City, Hong Kong Taipei Beijing Berlin Rome Vatican City, Vatican Paris Amsterdam Prague Budapest Vienna Bratislava Lisbon |
Of the countries I've been to, I've only been to slightly more than half of their capitals. What does that say?
For example, I have been to... Canada, not Ottawa Sweden, not Stockholm |
